PF预聚物处理固定木材压缩变形的机理

利用Ｘ射线衍射法测得ＰＦ预聚物处理材的晶区大小和相对结晶度，结果表明，ＰＦ预聚物的引入没有改变纤维素的结构。解析ＦＴＩＲ光谱图得知．经ＰＦ预聚物处理后的压密材酯化羰基 （１７３６ ｃｍ－１）峰强度增加、半纤维素异头碳（８９７ｃｍ－１）峰强度增加，纤维素、半纤维素醚键（１０５６ ｃｍ－１）峰强度减少、说明半纤维素聚木糖经ＰＦ预聚物处理后发生改变木材细胞壁物质中的纤维素、半纤维素、木质素分子中的某些基团发生交联．形成了新的基团。从ＥＳＲ和ＥＳＣＡ测试结果可知．由于ＰＦ预聚物处理木材的机械自由基（Ｍｅｃｈａｎｏｒａｉｄｃａｌ）的浓度明显降低，可以推断出木材自由基与ＰＦ预聚物之间发生了化学作用，导致ＥＳＲ信号绝大部分丧失、ＥＳＣＡ能谱分析表明ＰＦ预聚物处理后的压密材，随着ＰＦ预聚物浓度的增加。ＣＩ态含量逐渐减少．而ＣⅡ态、 ＣⅢ态却逐渐增加、 ＣⅣ态变化不大。结果表明， ＰＦ预聚物处理能够稳定木材尺寸、固定木材横纹压缩变形的主要原因是由于ＰＦ预聚物填充于木材细胞壁空隙中和细胞腔的内表面。活性很高的羟甲基等基团与木材细胞壁物质发生反应，形成共价键和其它键型，部分取代了羟基（－ＯＨ）以及其它基因形成交联化作用。

Effects of selective laser melting parameters on surface quality and densification behaviours of pure nickel

The effects of laser power and scanning speed on the forming characteristic of scanning tracks,densification behaviours and surface roughness of pure nickel fabricated with selective laser melting(SLM)were studied.The results indicate that the scanning tracks showed continuous,regular and flat surface with increasing laser power and decreasing scanning speed in a specific range,which could avoid the defects(like holes and balling structures)forming in SLM processing.The optimal process window was identified as the scanning speed of 900 mm/s and the laser power of 255−275 W by comparing the surface qualities and densification behaviours.With the suitable processing parameters,the relative density could achieve 99.16%,the tensile strength was(359.49±2.74)MPa,and the roughnesses of the top and side surfaces were(12.88±2.23)and(14.98±0.69)μm,respectively.

Ru surface density effect on ammonia synthesis activity and hydrogen poisoning of ceria-supported Ru catalysts

Evaluating the effect of metal surface density on catalytic performance is critical for designing high-activity metal-based catalysts.In this study,a series of ceria(CeCO_(2))-supported Ru catalysts(Ru/CeCO_(2))were prepared to analyze the effect of Ru surface density on the catalytic performance of Ru/CeCO_(2) for ammonia synthesis.For the Ru/CeCO_(2) catalysts with Ru surface densities lower than 0.68 Ru nm^(-2),the Ru layers were in close contact with CeCO_(2),and electrons were transferred directly from the CeCO_(2) defect sites to the Ru species.In such cases,the adsorption of hydrogen species on the Ru sites in the vicinity of 0 atoms was high,leading to a high ammonia synthesis activity and strong hydrogen poisoning.In contrast,the preferential aggregation of Ru species into large particles on top of the Ru overlayer resulted in the coexistence of Ru clusters and particles,for catalysts with a Ru surface density higher than 1.4 Ru nm^(-2),for which Ru particles were isolated from the direct electronic influence of CeCO_(2).Consequently,the Ru-Ceth interactions were weak,and hydrogen poisoning can be significantly alleviated.Overall,electron transfer and hydrogen adsorption synergistically affected the synthesis of ammonia over Ru/CeCO_(2) catalysts,and catalyst samples with a Ru surface density lower than 0.31 Ru nm^(-2) or exactly 2.1 Ru nm^(-2) exhibited high catalytic activity for ammonia synthesis.

Enhanced oxygen reduction reaction performance over Pd catalysts by oxygen-surface-modified SiC

Obtaining a detailed understanding of the surface modification of supports is crucial;however,it is a challenging task for the development and large-scale fabrication of supported electrocatalysts that can be used as alternatives to Pt-based catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR).In this study,commercial silicon carbide(SiC)was modified through surface oxidization(O-SiC)to support the use of Pd nanoparticles(Pd NPs)as electrocatalysts for ORR.The obtained Pd/O-SiC catalysts exhibited better ORR activity,stronger durability,and higher resistance to methanol poisoning than that exhibited by commercial Pt/C.The role of the support in enhancing the ORR performance,especially the oxidization of SiC surfaces,was discussed in detail based on the experimental characterizations and density functional theory calculations.The underlying mechanism of the superior ORR performance of Pd/O-SiC catalysts was attributed to the charge transfer from SiC_(x)O_(y)to Pd NPs on the surfaces of SiC and the strong metal–support interactions(SMSIs)between Pd and SiC_(x)O_(y).The charge transfer enhanced the ORR activity by inducing electron-rich Pd,increased the adsorption of the key intermediate OOH,and decreased the Gibbs free energy of the critical ORR step.Furthermore,SMSIs enhanced the ORR stability of the Pd/O-SiC catalyst.This study provided a facile route for designing and developing highly active Pd-based ORR electrocatalysts.

Flame retardancy effect of surface-modified metal hydroxides on linear low density polyethylene

Metal hydroxides （MAH） consisting of magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide with a mass ratio of 1：2 were surface-modified by y-diethoxyphosphorous ester propyldiethoxymethylsilane, boric acid and diphenylsilanediol in xylene under dibutyl tin dilaurate catalyst at 140 ℃. Phosphorus, silicon and boron elements covalently bonded to metal hydroxide particles were detected by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The degradation behavior of the surface-modified MAH was characterized by thermogravimetric analysis. The results show that linear low density polyethylene （LLDPE） composite, filled with 50% （mass fraction） of MAH modified by 5.0% （mass fraction） of modifiers, passes the V-0 rating of UL-94 test and shows the limited oxygen index of 34%, and its heat release rate and average effective heat combustion in a cone calorimeter measurement decrease obviously; The mechanical properties of MAH can be improved by surface-modification. The uniform dispersion of particles and strong interfacial bonding between particles and matrix are obtained.

Insights into Syngas to Methanol Conversion on Cr_(2)O_(3) Oxide from First-Principles-based Microkinetic Simulations

Cr_(2)O_(3) has been recognized as a key oxide component in bifunctional catalysts to produce bridging intermediate,e.g.,methanol,from syngas.By combining density functional theory calculations and microkinetic modeling,we computationally studied the surface structures and catalytic activities of bare Cr_(2)O_(3)(001)and(012)surfaces,and two reduced(012)surfaces covered with dissociative hydrogens or oxygen vacancies.The reduction of(001)surface is much more difficult than that of(012)surface.The stepwise or the concerted reaction pathways were explored for the syngas to methanol conversion,and the hydrogenation of CO or CHO is identified as rate-determining step.Microkinetic modeling reveals that(001)surface is inactive for the reaction,and the rates of both reduced(012)surfaces(25−28 s^(-1))are about five times higher than bare(012)surface(4.3 s^(-1))at 673 K.These theoretical results highlight the importance of surface reducibility on the reaction and may provide some implications on the design of individual component in bifunctional catalysis.

HIGH EMISSION PERFORMANCE IMPREGNATED DISPENSER CATHODE

In order to obtain higher emission performance than that of a traditional M-type cathode, we have developed a new type impregnated dispenser cathode. The new cathode is impregnated with a new active substance with molar ratio of 26BaO·29SrO·8Sc2O3 ·7CaO·Al2O3 . This paper introduces the emission performance, surface active material, and work function of the new cathode. At 1100℃B , the DC current density and pulse current density are 30.6±1.0 A/cm2 and 171.6±2.8 A/cm2 , respectively, 2.1 and 5.4 times of that of an M-type cathode. The work function of the new cathode is 1.668± 0.002 eV. High concentration O-Al-Sc-Sr-Ba and O-Al-Sc-Ba are found in the pores and at pore edges, respectively. By comparing the emission performances and surface characteristics of as-polished and as-cleaned cathodes, it is proposed that, the emission around pore ends forms the major part of the total emission for the new cathodes.

Process Optimization and Characterization of Sorghum Based Extruded Product

Expanded snacks made up of corn, wheat and rice is very popular because of their texture. Sorghum is one of the important cereals, which is not so far studied well for extrusion processing. Due to presence of high amount of starch （56%-73%）： sorghum could be the good candidate for manufacturing of expanded snacks. The extruded products obtained using extrusion conditions such as feed moisture content （12%-16%）, die temperature （150-190℃）, screw speed （150-210 rpm） and feed rate （50-70 g min1） are further characterized by analyzing bulk density, expansion ratio, water absorption index （WAI）, water solubility index （WSI）, textural properties, color and sensory evaluation. Increase in feed moisture content resulted in extrudates with gradual increase in density, WAI and hardness and decrease in expansion, WSI, crispness and whiteness. Higher barrel temperature reduced the extrudate expansion, bulk density and hardness and increased the WSI and crispness of the extrudates. The most acceptable product is obtained using response surface methodology （RSM）.

Coupling effects of Zn single atom and high curvature supports for improved performance of CO_(2) reduction

Single-atom catalysts(SACs)have emerged as one of the most competitive catalysts toward a variety of important electrochemical reactions,thanks to their maximum atom economy,unique electronic and geometric structures.However,the role of SACs supports on the catalytic performance does not receive enough research attentions.Here,we report an efficient route for synthesis of single atom Zn loading on the N-doped carbon nano-onions(ZnN/CNO).ZnN/CNO catalysts show an excellent high selectivity for CO_(2) electro-reduction to CO with a Faradaic efficiency of CO(FECO)up to 97%at -0.47 V(vs.reversible hydrogen electrode,RHE)and remarkable durability without activity decay.To our knowledge,ZnN/CNO is the best activity for the Zn based catalysts up to now,and superior to single atom Zn loading on the two-dimensional planar and porous structure of graphene substrate,although the graphene with larger surface area.The exact role of such carbon nano-onions(CNO)support is studied systematically by coupling characterizations and electrochemistry with density functional theory(DFT)calculations,which have attributed such good performance to the increased curvature.Such increased curvature modifies the surface charge,which then changes the adsorption energies of key intermediates,and improves the selectivity for CO generation accordingly.

Origin of the electrocatalytic oxygen evolution activity of nickel phosphides: in-situ electrochemical oxidation and Cr doping to achieve high performance

Zinc-air batteries(ZnABs) with high theoretical capacity and environmental benignity are the most promising candidates for next-generation electronics. However, their large-scale applications are greatly hindered due to the lack of high-efficient and cost-effective electrocatalysts. Transition metal phosphides(TMPs) have been reported as promising electrocatalysts. Notably,(Ni_(1-x)Cr_(x))_(2) P(0≤x≤0.15) is an unstable electrocatalyst, which undergoes in-situ electrochemical oxidation during the initial oxygen evolution reaction(OER) and even in the activation cycles, and is eventually converted to Cr-NiOOH serving as the actual OER active sites with high efficiency. Density functional theory(DFT) simulations and experimental results elucidate that the OER performance could be significantly promoted by the synergistic effect of surface engineering and electronic modulations by Cr doping and in-situ phase transformation. The constructed rechargeable ZnABs could stably cycle for more than 208 h at 5 m A cm^(-2), while the voltage degradation is negligible. Furthermore, the developed catalytic materials could be assembled into flexible and all-solid-state Zn ABs to power wearable electronics with high performance.

Supercapacitors based on high-surface-area graphene

Exfoliated graphite oxide was prepared by an improved Hummers method and was then reduced to graphene with hydrazine in the presence of ammonium hydroxide.N2adsorption–desorption measurement showed that graphene so obtained had a specific surface area as high as 818 m2/g.Galvanostatic charge/discharge curves demonstrated that the as-prepared graphene exhibited a specific capacitance of 186.9 F/g at a current density of 0.1 A/g and that about 96%of the specific capacitance was retained after 2000 cycles at a current density of 5 A/g.

Theoretical study of propene oxidation on Bi_2O_3 surfaces

The role of bismuth in the selective oxidation of propene has long been debated. We performed density functional calculations to study the dehydrogenation reaction of propene on Bi203 surfaces. Our calculated thermodynamic data reveal that the first dehydrogenation of propene on the most stable （010） surface and the （100） surface are difficult. Our calculations indicate that the barrier of the first hydrogen abstraction on the high Miller index surface （211） is much lower than those on the （100） and （010） surfaces, and is close to the experimental one. Further dehydrogenation is shown to be difficult and production of 1,5-hexadiene through dimerization of allyl is likely, in agreement with the experimental observations.
